Revisión erronea y sin sentido de una pokeparada

When submitting a Wayspot Appeal, make sure to include as much of the following information as possible:

  • Wayspot Title: Llave de Agua
  • Location (lat/lon): Monzón de Campos
  • City: Palencia
  • Country: España

Estoy decepcionado porque una pokeparada aparentemente aceptable, es rechazada por “abuso contra personas”

Es inaceptable que se rechace por algo que es obvio que no sucede, y encima en la apelación se reafirman en algo que es una mentira

Nos tomamos molestias para verificar pokeparadas y ayudar a la comunidad a mejorar, para ser rechazados por mentiras y abusos.

Adjunto la imagen, de la pokeparada que he pedido, donde no se ve mas que el objeto protagonista y me rechazan por abuso a otras personas… inaceptable.

Welcome to the forum! I hope we can help.

The Wayspot Appeals category is not for appealing a rejected nomination. This will most likely be moved to Nomination Support

Staff has told us that string is just what shows up when abuse is flagged. I hope they change the wording.

It is likely that something else caused this to be flagged. Often it is a third party photo being used, a very misplaced pin, or a fake nomination. Can you think of anything about this nomination that might have been marked as abuse?

Out of curiosity, what is the significance of the “XX” at the end of the description?

That’s how you write centuries in Spanish, with Roman numerals. Siglo XX → 20th century

Thanks, that makes sense now that I look at it. I was forgetting roman numerals existed for a moment :sweat_smile:

El siglo XX (siglo 20)

In english XX Century. Roman numbers

Seguramente hayan interpretado las XX como algun lenguaje abusivo o humillante.

El significado de XX es 20, asi se describen los siglos, con números romanos.

I would hope that people in the region who would review this would understand the dating system. If this is truly the reason it was marked as abuse, then it should be an easy appeal of that reason, but they may not think it meets criteria anyway. Are you certain there are no other issues with the pin, etc.?

(I want to be clear that I am not staff. Any staff members who reply here would be clearly identified as Niantic names. Wayfarer Ambassadors who are go betweens for the community like @kawin240 have the Ambassador label by their name and usually have a picture avatar. I was just trying to pass along information to help.)

I got so focused on the abuse question, that I forgot to talk about the criteria question. I am not sure that a “Water Key” meets criteria of a great place to exercise, explore, or be social. What were your arguments for that?

It’s unfortunate that the question about how Roman numerals are used in Spanish has now lead to this speculation.

Staff will likely rely a bit on using translation tools, a good one will pick this up and not just display the Roman numerals as is, as seen here:

The rejection reason you received never means you did any or all of what is listed. The actual rejection reason is “Abuse of Wayfarer”, not harassment, not text, not whatever else is in the listing.

You so far only shared the main photo and description with the forum here, and we found nothing that would contribute to this reason. You can now either post the other parts of the submission like title, location, supporting photo and supporting text, or wait patiently until eventually staff might answer you.

It is not related to a key. Llave de agua means water valve or something similar.

Translation tools do only give you the likeliest or most used meaning, not the actual one if it’s dependent on the context like here

I should have said it this way:

What is “Llave de Agua”
It is translating to “Water Key”

I will leave this for those of you who can read the original. I tried.

Can you provide the rest detail of the nomination?

Dejo aqui el resto de información, al final se trata de una escultura de hierro colocada ahi en honor a un trabajador que dedico su vida al pueblo y trabajaba el tema del agua (fontaneria, tuberias etc…) en una zona de descanso y con un acceso peatonal mas que obvio.

Es cierto que la ubicación de la pokeparada esta 10 metros desplazada para que por el sistema de celdas pueda aparecer en el juego (porque lo he visto hacer en muchos wayspot) y si se rechaza por eso pues no pasa nada.

Es una zona con un camino a la que se puede llegar haciendo ejercicio, o pasar por ella, y tiene bancos y sombra alrededor, para poder socializar tambien.
Simplemente el hecho de que en el pueblo haya pocas pokeparadas y se quiera potenciar el juego hace que la ubicación esté desplazada unos metros, nada que impida ver perfectamente donde se ubica la escultura.

Pero abusos o lenguaje que ridiculiza a terceros no hay en ningun momento.

Está todo ahí, explicado honestamente para que todo el mundo pueda verlo.

Hi
your photos didn’t finish uploading so we can’t see that helpful information.
You need to give it longer to fully upload

Pues entonces, ahora sabemos porque has recibido la razón de rechazo. Desplazamiento de Wayspots para evadir las reglas de inclusión de los juegos, es abuso de Wayfarer. Tienes suerte que no te han baneado por eso.

No tengo ninguna intención de engañar porque el la descripción lo explico honestamente y sinceramente.

La única razón es para potenciar el juego en núcleos rurales y pueblos con menos posibilidades que las grandes ciudades.

Hello, I understand it is rough and hard to make good wayspot in rural area, however you are violating Wayfarer Term of Conditions.

That is a straight violation, I understand you want some pokestop in your area, but it is a violation on the Wayfarer ToS. You could get banned in both Wayfarer and any Niantic(Scopely) game.

You have the intention of deceiving on putting in a wrong location. Is it honestly if you lied it in the first place?

It would be helpful if you can post the coordinate of your area so we can help you finding eligible nominations.
